The moral of the story is,when the Police give you a lawful order to move or disperse-just do it.You can always hire a lawyer and take the cops to court if you think your civil rights were somehow violated.
I rather see them taking a boot or two...the bruises will make them remember longer.
Standard procedure. What would they rather have? Some officer slashed with a razor by one of these slobs? Anybody thinking the officers were out of line on this needs to go and visit the family of the last two officers that were slashed by so called “peaceful” protesters.
Just a guess but I’m betting they smelled better afterwards than before...;-)
If it were a bunch of conservatives blocking an abortion clinic, would it be “chilling”?
Do conservative block entrances to abortion clinics or is this just the most recent pathetic attempt at moral relativism?
If they weren’t leaving, then they were defiant, not passive.
You can stay in one place and still be an agressor if you are not supposed to be there.

Give me a break. They used Pepper Spray. If they had used bullets, you might have a point Chancellor.
as someone else pointed out today,, they were sprayed with a vegetable mist, ,,,,the horror.
Chancellor Linda Katehi is a pathetic moron. What is going on in Cairo right now is “chilling”. What happened at the Davis Communist Indoctrination Center was just a bunch of goofy, braindead morons getting sprayed with harmless pepper spray. Lighten up Linda.
This “chilling” event was a step up from doing nothing. I’ve endured worse at the hands of my friends.
Thought they were spraying disinfectant. Don’t Lysol me, bro!
Even though this is radical lib vs radical lib, people like us are still going to be the ones blamed.....
The only thing chilling about the video was how the crowd forced the police to make a slow retreat. The crowd started surrounding the police and the police had to slowly back up to make sure no one got separated. Only after the crowd told them they “would not do anything to them” as long as they lowered their weapons and left did the police finally escape.
It was a sad moment that reminded me of how the police abandoned LA during the riots. Too bad there were no Korean shop owners this time.
No, I’m saying that the same people who are appalled and horrified at OWS protestors being pepper sprayed would be delighted if it happened to conservatives blocking an abortion clinic. Suddenly, police force would NOT be an issue.
Next time, Taser practice.
